Revision as of 08:41, 20 September 2008
, 08:41, 20 September 2008→Criticism of FT2
Combined with the important position he holds on Wikipedia, and the reverential awe in which he is held by less knowledgeable and more impressionable administrators, FT2 exercises a malignant and pernicious influence on the encyclopedia. He has driven off a stream of excellent and well-qualified editors. He has gathered around him a group of administrators who hold him in high esteem for his supposed impartiality and neutrality, and who will block upon a single word from him.

I know these criticisms are harsh. But they are not ''personal''. I have no thoughts or interest about the person who is FT2 in real life. My criticism is directed against FT2 the editor, namely that he is an atrociously poor writer, and (worse, because it cannot be corrected like poor writing) he wields immense influence on the project in a manner that tends to drive good editors away.
